The Trial of a Parametic

The 27 year old woman passed out on a crowded platform at wynyard station. The parametic helped her into a wheel chair and took her into a treatment room. His lawyers claimed that this was consentual. If she had told some one other than her partner and her colleague, she might have spared all eight of these other women, not just from his dishonest hands, but from the brutality of a criminal trial. Later, sleep eventually mercifully found her and relieved the singular and inconsolable ache of being denied a version of justice she never wanted or believed in.
